Electrochemical Energy

Renewable energy sources offer a sustainable solution to meet the energy needs of the future. To overcome the intermittency of solar and wind we are focusing on strategies to address energy storage and conversion using batteries, fuel cells, and electrolyzers in transformative ways.

Addressing the Global Energy Crisis

The Columbia Electrochemical Energy Center (CEEC) is using a multiscale approach to discover groundbreaking technology and accelerate commercialization. CEEC joins together faculty and researchers from across the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences who study electrochemical energy with interests ranging from electrons to devices to systems. Our industry partnerships enable the realization of breakthroughs in electrochemical energy storage and conversion.

CEEC commitment to anti-racism

Dear Students and Friends of the CEEC:

We are committed to being an anti-racist organization. The long existent and stark inequalities that minimize, marginalize and endanger the lives and contributions of all Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), and the systemic behaviors that give cover to the wrongful deaths of so many, have been brought into the forefront by the murders of George Floyd, Breanna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery and the deaths of so many more due to societal conditions that have worsened the effects of COVID-19 on BIPOC communities.
